president obama's decision reminds me of this story. in 1955 the israeli philosopher yisha leibovitz wrote a letter to david ben gurion, israel's first prime minister, in which he complained about innocent palestinians killed during israeli operations. ben gurion then replied, "i received your letter and i do not agree with you. were all the human ideals to be given to me on the one hand and israeli security on the other, i would choose israeli security because while it is good that there be a world full of peace, fraternity, justice, and honesty, it is even more important that we be in it." that's "hardball" for now. thank you for being with us. "the ed show" with ed schultz starts right now. >>> good evening, americans, and welcome to "the ed show" from new york. the obama administration's policy of targeting americans comes under attack on capitol hill. this is "the ed show." let's get to work. >> every american has the right to know when their government believes it's allowed to kill them. >> the president's pick for cia takes a gri

he believed obama was going to lose reelection. they were telling him the right was being told over here. he say no termer. he can never get reelected and soon you will have a president that is your kind of president. someone who said what you want, you will get. the message he was getting. chuck schumer called him at the height of the campaign and said obama is going to win and the u.s. starts to adjust for that. between him winning a race that netanyahu never thought he was going to win and missing no opportunity and netanyahu himself ending up in sort of a messy situation, i think that's interesting and it's an interesting context to the visit. >> mitt romney promised he would make israel his first. >> his first. i want to quickly mention and talk about the hagel confirmation hearings, i'm interested to watch, he will make it through the committee and get confirmed, but how many republicans are going to vote for him? right now only two of 45 are on the record saying they are yes votes. probably about 20 have not said anything. m

the total number of americans killed by drone strikes under obama is three. that is exactly the same number of high value detainees who were waterboarded under president bush. as we all know, waterboarding is, and michael will know this as well as anybody, is going to be part of the legacy of the bush years. i don't think the obama people want targeted killing of americans to be very high up on the list of their legacy in national security policy, which is why they have an incentive to try to figure out a way to do something about this. >> there is an additional incentive here as well, though, because drones are central to the obama approach for national security. precisely because they want to disengage from what they regard as messy counterinsurgency operations, like in afghanistan. so what do you do when you disengage from counterinsurgency operations? you have to step up counterterrorism operations, which is what drones do and what they have done, in order not to just surrender this ground. so i think that the expanded use of drones is actually related to

he is in his second term, and we've been talking a lot about how it's a new swagger obama. he seemed more confident and less concerned with lee re-election. as awe denizn of all things political, do you see him expending some amount of personal energy and political capital and pushing this issue in particular? >> i think it remains to be seen. if you recall, cap and trade legislation is a huge failure. this was a major problem. i think he does feel scarred by it. you heard marco rubio. on the one hand, you have chris christie on one side talking about the realities of the aftermath of sandy, and then you have marco rubio in his state of the union response saying what he said, so i think that realistically there is not going to be much congressional action. i think what he said in his state of the union the other night is where he would like to go. the big test is going to be the keystone pipeline. i don't know the answer to how this is going to play out. i mean, i think -- i don't know that this is going to be his major priority over, say, immigration. >> i'm not saying maj
